Math is a very difficult subject for a majority of our learners. It is important to make math fun to gain their interest and sustain valuable learning experiences. Having this collaborative furniture allows opportunities for students to work together with hands on approaches. We do a lot of team work, as we want to instill not just math skills, but skills in positive discourse and teamwork with peers that will translate into positive and productive careers and future collaborative experiences in their careers. This is a valuable skill in demand!!!
